Judy and Family, you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I knew Roy from the hockey games. He was always such a positive and happy person. He will be truly missed. He loved his sports but most of all he loved his family. You will have so many wonderful memories of him that will stay with you always. Again, you have my deepest sympathy.
